Table 7 Supported font in SATO-SAP Printer Driver
For Fixed size SATO Resident Font, please refer to the Font Appendix for a list of supported
size of the font.
Note:
1. SATO 203dpi printer does not support printing of 8 point or lower Courier Font
(ESC+$A, ESC+$B, ESC+$=). It will be printed in a slightly larger size instead.
2. There could be some discrepancies of the string length shown on SmartForms and
what printed from printer. This is because when converting the SAP font point size into
SATO font dot size for specific resolution, there is a rounding up of fractions in the
calculation.
3. For Japanese device types which offer SATO Resident Bitmap fonts, the Japanese text
will appear shorter than what shown on the print preview of SmartForms. This is
because the width of the 1-byte characters in the SAP Japanese fonts is 0.5 time of the
2-byte characters. But in SATO Japanese fonts, the width of the 1-byte characters is
slightly larger, about 0.6 times, of the 2-byte characters.
